I remember Hyakutake. I was 8 years old, and my parents drove us a couple of hours out of Denver into the mountains to see it. I remember it was basically just a very dim, fuzzy dot you could only really see if you didn't look directly at it. But learning now that Hyakutake might have been an interstellar object makes that memory that much more profound.
I'm happy that Comet Hyakutake is considered a possible visitor to our Solar system as this was the first comet I recall seeing that looked like a "proper" comet. I recall watching Hyakutake visibly move against the background stars in '96, a warmup for Hale-Bopp.
Hear, hear! Hyakutake was the one of the first comets I was tasked with charting nightly (by hand with pencil, on blown-up star charts) and yes, it was the perfect prelude to the wonder that was Hale-Bopp👍🤌 🖖
Scishow are sickos who support torturing animals in mad Science experiments giving them disease and toxic chemicals. Alternative : people dying of disease. STOP CURING DISEASE.
Also the thought of a piece of our solar system one day teaching aliens about our home kinda warms my heart and makes me feel a little less small in our very, very large universe.
You're gonna have a wee bit longer of a wait. The Oort cloud is way out there and extends halfway to the Centuri system. Space is inconveniently big, well, save when something energetically interesting happens, when it's extra-conveniently big enough to not do that killing us off thing.
@@SlavaPunta Yes but let's not forget NASA probes have the tendency to live forever, haha. I definitely hope they keep them alive for the next 30 years. 🤞

Because we also said that the comet likely never went close to its parent star before escaping its solar system

5:42 I Saw comet Hiakutake back in 1996. The most overwhelming spectacle of nature I have ever witnessed. It was more than 60⁰ in the night sky, I had to move my head to fully contemplate it.
The vibe of this video makes me feel like I'm in the room with homie chillin talking about "space stuff" Also GREAT SHIRT...reminds me of the dude from CURIOUS DROID. That dude has some FIRE shirts lemme tell you.
I really love the style change for the presentation. I feel like I'm retaining more information from this more conversational experience! Thanks so much for the always-awesome science videos!!
Regarding Comet Bowell, I'm now sitting here imagining a civilization on a far away planet having some kind of educational briefing on this weird flaming ball of ice that came from outside their system and wondering how it happened
It seems that the odds of an interstellar object entering our solar system is so low you’d expect it to nearly never happen. It might be like shooting a bullet from Mt. Rainier with a really powerful gun, but hitting a target on Maui. It might even be harder than that. But gaps between solar systems are so vast that odds are, an interstellar object would simply fly through space for eons without hitting any solar system.
Space may only be an hour's drive away, but the depths of the ocean are even less that--only about 7 miles at its deepest. Of course, it's not the actual distance that's the problem! It's interesting to think that all sorts of things may be going on in the universe, but it's so large that only a fraction of a fraction of it is happening right here in our solar system. When we manage interstellar travel, we'll probably discover a lot more interesting stuff.
I was just watching NileRed before seeing this and "nah" made me think of baking soda (if you remove the end of the formula because that is made of CO3).
You know what the actual rarest object in the Solar System is, It's you. There is only one of you in the entirety of everything. That is one hell of a fantastic thing.
I knew space was vast, but I didn’t really grasp it until you mentioned the time it’ll take voyager to reach the Oort Cloud. I thought these things were so much closer than this… that is insane. 🤯
Dear SciShow, Please do an episode about chronic kidney disease! My dad has been diagnosed and is like to get the run down the SciShow way! All these other videos aren’t getting me the info I need! Thanks! A concerned daughter
Thanks for the vid, super interesting The chair is a bit distracting, particularly with the high arm/head rest. maybe something a bit like John's early crash course chair and desk, not the leather fire place chair.
Speaking of ʻOumuamua, I recently started my 3rd listening of Rendezvous With Rama. Just noticed this from chapter one: *At 09.46 GMT on the morning of 11 September, in the exceptionally beautiful summer of the year 2077, most of the inhabitants of Europe saw a dazzling fireball appear in the eastern sky. Within seconds it was brighter than the sun, and as it moved across the heavens-at first in utter silence-it left behind it a churning column of dust and smoke.*
when i hear of objects coming into the solar system my mind goes crazy with thoughts of where its been and how long its been going for and if it even came from outside the milky-way. has it been traveling for billions of years in IGS or from another Galaxy altogether? probably not but i still like to imagine its journey and the different planets/sun its past and has someone on those planets thinking the same thing as me as it past by them ? again probably not lol.
Sometimes I forget we are all the same in the end and feel like my life is harder than others. It might be different, but a lot of people have "mental problems" no one is better than the other
Remember we have only closely watching for, and plotting the orbits of, all objects for the last few years. This due to concerns over possible Earth impactor objects. This implies that small interstellar objects are more common then we thought.
So 1I is not on its way back to our solar system like many of the other You Tube channels say. Actually some people will be sad that 1I is not coming back to our Solar system.
I believe that an object in a solar system can only go hyperbolic if: A. It has its own propulsion, or B. It’s interstellar. I’m no physicist but I believe a hyperbolic trajectory only happens if an object’s speed is high enough to achieve escape velocity. In this case I guess the Sun would be the candidate for that object to revolve around but a hyperbolic orbit comes in flat and leaves flat, usually gone to the next solar system, wherever that might be.
Gravitational assists are also a thing. If an object passes too close to a much larger object (like a planet) its velocity (speed and direction) is going to be significantly altered. Plenty of space probes have exploited that to reduce the fuel requirement, but the larger planets could just as easily boost a random comet onto an escape trajectory.
It's not that simple. Even if it came directly from one of the closest stars (which it didn't), that's still thousands of years ago. Stars are constantly moving and affecting each other's orbits, and these rocks have probably been travelling through interstellar space for millions of years. It's not really possible to extrapolate backwards on those sorts of timescales.
Gosh can you imagine if we could have been able to tag it with a dash cam to collect data to be sent back to earth best part is we would only need the power to run the tag as the asteroid is doing all the work of travailing for us.

The only thing better than getting a shot of science from Reid is a double shot. Keep up the great work!
I did not realize that the Voyager probes have not gone through the Oort cloud. Wow. That gives me a reason to hope they live another 30 years.
You're gonna have a wee bit longer of a wait. The Oort cloud is way out there and extends halfway to the Centuri system. Space is inconveniently big, well, save when something energetically interesting happens, when it's extra-conveniently big enough to not do that killing us off thing.
Sorry to tell you but its 300 years untill Voyager reaches the oort cloud
Dates vary by source / paper, but their batteries aren't expected to last more than a year or two at this point.

I have some delay on watching Scishow and I am just discovering the new studio, nice and cozy 😊
I like this sitting delivery better .. feels more natural .. like your talking with a friend instead of addressing an audience.
This guys one of my favorite narrators on your channel besides , of course Hank
I like the "new" set your using. At least I've never seen it before, so its great looking. Keep using it.

But gaps between solar systems are so vast that odds are, an interstellar object would simply fly through space for eons without hitting any solar system.
Would be true if not for gravity, but stars have a lot of mass and bend the paths of interstellar objects towards them.
What ISO do you think I'd need to use to photograph an ISO? My camera only goes up to 6400.
Space may only be an hour's drive away, but the depths of the ocean are even less that--only about 7 miles at its deepest. Of course, it's not the actual distance that's the problem!

Loving that new studio.
Long time no see, where were you mate?
Moon
Omuamua is further then Uranus 🤣
From the thumbnail I can promise you I saw one of those at about 8:30 this morning
Great episode, as usual. the new host sitting down format looks more uncomfortable than when they used to stand though.
Very interesting video. I forgot your name, but I love your shirt!
That chair looks like it was custom made for Reid 😎
did this video get removed and had to be reuploaded or something?
Yep
I thought they just remastered it
The audio was fuggy
Thanks for the vid, super interesting

This is what I'm living with, so I think everyone else feels the same. Thank you for the (inadvertent maybe?) Therapy
These videos go well with hot coffee sitting by a fan and hearing the grasshoppers chirp outside my window
Sometimes I forget we are all the same in the end and feel like my life is harder than others. It might be different, but a lot of people have "mental problems" no one is better than the other
I have that shirt too!!!
Thus some of the descriptions of the object were as hyperbolic as the path of the object.
I swear I saw this video the other day?
yeah, me too, skimming through this video i recognize all of the names mentioned and i know for a fact i saw them all in a recent scishow video
I noticed that the original video they posted is deleted now. I wonder why they reuploaded this one…
Had to hear the where's Waldo comment twice
Perhaps there were some things they really felt needed to be fixed?
I swear i saw this comment on the same previous upload which they deleted.
Remember we have only closely watching for, and plotting the orbits of, all objects for the last few years. This due to concerns over possible Earth impactor objects.
This implies that small interstellar objects are more common then we thought.
Woah that's cool...so is our solar system a run of the mill system or is it really weird?
The voice of this man is amazing
Thinking about things like this makes me sad that my life is too short to witness certain astrological breakthroughs.
So 1I is not on its way back to our solar system like many of the other You Tube channels say. Actually some people will be sad that 1I is not coming back to our Solar system.
That back part of the chair looks like the weirdest shoulder pad
We need to have an intercepting vehicle ready in space to catch up to the next Oumuamua that’ll cross our path.
I randomly found this object on the NASA app. The eyes on asteroid function is like Google maps for the solar system. From 1949-2049
Love the new casual setting. The standing chats was getting old.
Nobodies mentioning how Oumuamua sped up as it started leaving our system
Wow, they finally got you a chair. Just in time for a cool video.
I believe that an object in a solar system can only go hyperbolic if:
A. It has its own propulsion, or
B. It’s interstellar.
I’m no physicist but I believe a hyperbolic trajectory only happens if an object’s speed is high enough to achieve escape velocity.

On a Celestial scale, I think Earth is pretty rare in the solar system
you sound like Penn of Penn and Tellar. I just can't escape it
Omg you are right! A lot less bombastic and more gentle, though : )
Are interstellar objects rare or are we able to see more of them now using technology to search space
You sound like Will Sasso doing an impression of Jesse Ventura and I absolutely love it
Incase you're wondering, 400 billion hours is = 45,631,783 years
Sitting down this looks way comfier, i love it.
He is working so hard on the pronunciation.
I so wish we could come across another planet's Voyager.
Am I hallucinating? I swear I’ve already watched this video from them
There must be only one artistic rendering of Oamuamua. I only ever see that one.
I mean after 4 billions years residing in our solar system is it really an immigrant at that point?
it's somehow like Zentraedi Flagship from Macross 1982
Did we track it to where it could have been coming from? I mean if you know the trajectory, hyperbolic or and other form, can't we trace it back?
It's not that simple. Even if it came directly from one of the closest stars (which it didn't), that's still thousands of years ago. Stars are constantly moving and affecting each other's orbits, and these rocks have probably been travelling through interstellar space for millions of years. It's not really possible to extrapolate backwards on those sorts of timescales.
I was expecting a Despicable Me quote at the beginning of that ad read. Vector, a quantity with both direction & magnitude.
"Omouamoua is already further from the sun than Uranus is"
5:19 that looks like a descending spiral and /or a wobble due to a consistent interruption 👀
nice eyes
Thanks 😇
"We will make a wall and make the Proxima Centauri-ans pay for it"
Maybe some day they'll manage to catch an interstellar object.
What I’m hearing is that outside our solar system, its really cold.
Gosh can you imagine if we could have been able to tag it with a dash cam to collect data to be sent back to earth best part is we would only need the power to run the tag as the asteroid is doing all the work of travailing for us.
Hah got em, he said Pluto-like exoplanet. Pluto is a planet, uh, Confirmed. Knew it
What about that moon of Uranus or Neptune that revolves the opposite direction to all the other moons?
Since our sun is a main sequence star fusing hydrogen into helium, doesn’t that mean virtually everything around us came in on an ISO at some point?
Fans of sci-fi were disappointed that the object was named "Oumuamua" instead of "Rama."
Rama's not due for a few decades yet.
Sci Show Space is now broadcasting from Reid's basement.
Halicona plant, flamingo shirt, Maui hook… brah you on island?
Wwhat about the Murchison meteorite and the couple of other interstellar meteorites?
Remember to water that plant Reid !!
Just to be clear, our solar system was passing through it. Not the other way around. In fact, it’s barely moving.
Cosmic rays, Extra Solar Particles do irritate my skin.
Is anybody weirded out that they named one of the ISOs "hot lime"?
